If you're knitting in a contrast color for your hem and cuffs, work 1 round in that color before starting the ribbing. This will prevent the main color showing in the first row of purl bumps in the ribbing. An incredibly optional step for a very nitpicky detail, but if you're like me, you love the details

Dangit, you proved my algebra teacher right. Apparently I will come across a scenario in life where I will need to find "x". If I start knitting that is.

Knitting is awesome try it

I love patterns that are made to fit! Easier to make, and easier to understand how the knitting really works, instead of blindly following a pattern and not getting what we're doing. so HUGE thanks! as an intermediate knitter I'll try this tutorial

Same!!! It makes it so much easier to modify and make sure you're getting the size you want. I hope you enjoy!

1. Love your color choices. 2. Holy moly watching you switch styles is interesting! 3. Screenshot the math portion to prove to my students that math turns up in random parts of your life and is EASY!

Hopefully after this video you were able to buy a new circular needle long enough for this project! Thank you for your great videos and podcasts!

An easier way of determining how many stitches to cast on is this one: 12 divided by 3 -- which gives you the number of stitches per inch-- = 4, multiplied by 22 = 88 stitches. It's called a 'règle de trois' in French, and we learn how to do it at primary school. I use it all the time in supermarkets to work out what's best value when a product is sold in different weights, for instance. Thanks for this very useful video. :-)

I was wondering if someone else would mention this method, I always do this or something similar. Usually I just count how many stitches are in 1 inch to begin with and multiple from that, then round up or down to my desired number. The method in the video seems wicked complicated to me, I'm not sure when you'd need to use that

Indeed it is. The 'règle de trois' (rule of three) should be taught in schools everywhere. It's the one maths thing that I've used all my life. My partner, who's British, had never heard of it.

Love how in depth this tutorial is! I’m a crocheter who’s a beginner to knitting and I’m super excited to try this pattern out!!

Same here!

I have been crocheting for a year now, and last fall i made my first crochet raglan sweater by following your tutorial on the raglan crochet sleeves and just making the body portion longer. I am trying to learn how to knit now, and written patterns i find are just impossible to follow. This tutorial seems pretty straightforward, with very clear instructions too, and i love how you can use any yarn and needles based on gauge... I just wanted to thank you for taking the time to make these tutorials, you make fiber arts less confusing and much more exciting.

just finished weaving the ends in on my first raglan!! thank you so much, Emma for such a wonderful customizable pattern!

So awesome!! Thank you for being so thorough and explaining everything so clearly ☺️ I only recently got over my apprehension of knitting in the round and making things to measure. Just recently finished a bottom-up sweater, can't wait to try this one out 😁

You have inspired me to try knitting my first ever sweater. I'm currently not using one of your patterns, but i found, that i knit wayyyyy easier and more relaxed while having your videos playing in the background, which means i ca knit and also learn new tings at the same time which makes this whole thing way less daunting. I'm so excited to try your dinosaur sweater pattern afterwards as welll!

Thank you. A beautiful basic T-shirt pattern is what I've been looking for.

gonna make this soon with thrifted yarn i got recently!!!!! i really appreciate u for including all the math stuff in this pattern!

just thrifted some beautiful yarn that I'm using to make this! I'm about halfway through the area before the armpits right now and I'm surprised at how simple this is. I thought I would have to adjust the increases since I want it to be loose and I have a short torso, but so far it seems to be working very well. very size inclusive pattern :)

OMGOSH~ just found you today! AMAZING! U showed me so many techniques I had wondered about! The calculating, the joining in the round, the folded collar...even your guage swatch was a joy to understand. ~LOVE THIS VIDEO! ~TY TY TY TY ~

This is a godsend!! Like some others have said, your explanation helps to actually understand what I'm doing in a knitting project rather than just following instructions. I got halfway through making a project using a pattern and realised I'd done the raglan incorrectly but couldn't work out why. I just undid the whole thing and am starting again now actually knowing what it is i'm doing. thanks heaps!!

Ema,I like your esthetic you are very creative.I met you here in Boston at one of the markets and in fact I took 2 pictures of the outfits you were selling.Thank you for recommending the store Make and mend ,went there ,bought some bamboo needles for the ladies in my group( I started a knitting group at the Senior center in Brookline)Very good tutorial,and love the way you combine the colors.

Making my first ever shirt with this tutorial. Thanks!

Holy shit i have been looking for a video exactly like this forever, and you executed it PERFECTLY! Answered all my questions. I’m starting to resent patterns as a novice knitter, bc i like to thoroughly understand what im doing and why I’m doing it so I can replicate it in the future. As well as gather the knowledge of different garments so i can combine different techniques later on to make things customized. This explained everything i wanted to know, tysm:)))

Great tutorial. I feel confident enough to start my own sweater.

You’re the first knitter whom I’ve been able to learn raglan increases from properly! And that’s even accounting for me knitting this flat, not in the round! I’m a crocheter but my mother and grandmother taught me to knit when I was a child. However, the way they taught me doesn’t match anyone I can easily find online. Turns out, it’s a combination method where my knit stitches are actually facing the opposite to pretty much everyone else’s 😢 but at least your method of increases works for me too!!

I love it ! I haven't made one yet but after this beanie i will make one Definitely!!!❤😊

You are so clever on how you added a purl on the ribbing.

i think you are a really good teacher because this is literally like my second time with knitting needles and it works so well for me ❤ mind you i am quite a fast learner but my mom tried to teach me a few times and it never worked 😂 could be also the fact that she has as much patience as a goldfish but that changes nothing 😂 so thank you for the tutorial, it is so well made and helped me a lot with my first knitted raglan top ❤ (haven't finished yet but i'm close xd)

Thanks very well explained, easy and clear.

Thank you! Ive knit a raglan sweater last year and I just couldn't remember all the details but i didnt want to be stuck to a pattern, this was just what i needed!

Excellent explanation! Thanks.

Very pretty!

You could also divide the stitches in the beginning by three. Thus you've got one third of the stitches for the front, the second third for the back and the third third 😊 is the number of stitches for both arms together. Divide the third third by 2: voilà, the number for each arm.

Thanks for sharing!

Gave thumbs up for the measurements and math 🤩super helpful! thank you!

You are amazing ❤

This pattern looks great! Is there any way I can make this tighter and shorter to make it a baby-tee??

This is great!! Do you happen to have a crochet version pattern of this? I only know how to crochet, but have trying to find a pattern for this type of shirt 😓 ty!!

My favorite part of this was learning that my go-to cast on is called a cable cast on. I could never get tension right with other methods and decided to just knit the foundation on. Glad to know the name now if someone asks.

I loved ❤

would i be able to knit this flat? my cord is too long to use the joining method you used, but too stiff to use the magic loop method.

Thanks for the video. I know how to knit a top / down sweater for babies/ toddlers so would like to knit one for myself but can’t get my head around the German short rows to knit for the collar. ( ie to make the back neck higher than the front) Does it make a big difference please? I’m not looking for a perfect fit or use expensive yarn but dk yarn.

Slight issue I've just ran into, what if my gauge swatch is less than 3 inches wide though 😭 Love the tutorial by the way! Looks really easy to follow!

hi, i have a question and need some help chat if I drop my m1l and m1r for 2 rows how do I fix this?

on your tiktok the neckline is smaller and more turtle necky, how do i get it like that? i like the sleeves and the neckline in your tiktok but i don’t know how to do it like that

Why 16sts for gauge swatch? What size of your yarn to used a pretty large size needle? Thanks.

Before dividing for the sleeves, should I have just completed an increase row or an all knit row? Or does it not matter?

Quick tip for people who may be a bit bigger around the chest area, it’s easier to knit to the widest part of your chest before deciding for the sleeves, I would also recommend adding a couple more stitches under the arm than the pattern says, makes it a bit easier to make it fit your body ❤

Yes not sure why in horizontal knititing you would skip every says third stitch. (Understand this in picking up stitches in a vertical button band when row count is larger than stitch count, but not when picking up horizontally). I'd also pick up an extra stitch in that gap that forms at beginning and end of row then k 2 together to return to original stitch count in next row. Helps prevent gapping . Great video!!! Many thanks for your clarity!

Hi! Love the tutorial:) I'm noticing that the way that the sleeves fall is a bit different between the two tops in the video. Is this because of the weight and type of yarn used? Both tops are gorgeous, but I think something closer to the green top would suit me better. If someone could enlighten me I'd be grateful:)

I was hoping to see you do short row shaping for the back neck. I hate the way sweaters pull toward the back and feel tight at the center front neck if there’s no shaping. Otherwise a 5 star video! Thanks!

at what section, do you start with a new color? 😀

lovely tutorial! it's my first time knitting anything bigger than a sample swatch and so far this has been really easy to follow. i was just wondering how i could get a more baggy fit without making my collar bigger? would it work if i did increases in every row instead or is that going to throw off the raglan look?

@timidgeek

9 ай бұрын

i think you should follow the increases every other row or it will likely change the shape quite a bit. personally i think you could just split the arms out further down than your arms are, kind of trying it on as you go so that it’s more oversized? if that makes sense. it helps a lot to use measurements from a piece of clothing you already have and love the fit of!!

How come the measurements of the chest were not applied. Do I use only the need measurements?

how long do i do the increases for

Do you have any suggestions for how to decrease on the sleeves if we want them to be more fitted?

is the body in alternating rows of knit and purl? and you increase on the knit rows? or is it all the knit stitch. i’m just confused cause you wrote stockinette

@margaret2427

when you use circular needles, you don't need to alternate between knit and purl to do stockinette stitch. you just knit every row.

Question! Are the increases always one stitch away from the marker during every increase row or no?

Can someone give me a bit of advice? I’m doing the left leaning increases through the back loop, but I still see a little bit of a hole?? Like it’s not in your face but still. Maybe my increases are a bit too tight? Hope it’ll be fixed during the blocking stage

That happened to me too. After blocking, if it’s still there, just stitch it closed with a needle. It’s under the arm so it’s not that noticeable

What mm?needle you use?

In Minute 33 you tell us to take two inches of for the arms, but why exactly two inches? And how would that translate to centimeters (the metric system)?

Hi, so beautiful of you to share such info. I have a 4 year old and trying to use my wool for him. But thing is his circumference I took is 19 inch..if I take one of his jumper it should be around 15 inch neck opening..what am I doing wrong? really want to make but afraid to start just if you can help me understand. I am tempted to use 15 inch as stitch circumference but just unsure. He is a small 4 year old and there is no way his neck line should be 19 inch. Please help ..and THANK YOU again for your work!

Knitting in the "sleeve swamp" watching this, long cardigan sleeves taat, 4mm needles, feel like forever ... interesting tp see what co is used under the arms, on this one the designer says halfhitches, some say knitted, crochet or whatever, when I really want to be fancy I use Judy's Magic cast on, but then I have to add an extra thread ... and put the sleeve ones on a thread or needle.
